Moving ahead with the Shifter, I turned my attention to the LEDs. I selected two 0804 SMD LEDs, pre-wired, that I had purchased from WEHONEST on eBay. Since the headlight housings are metal castings I needed to insulate the back of the LED where the 30 gauge wires are soldered in order to prevent a short circuit. To do this I used two generous coatings of Weldbond adhesive. I'll use the same adhesive to hold the LEDs in place before soldering them to the appropriate wires in the locomotive and tender.
